What has this got to do with this thread?

Thanks for the update waroop, I was wondering why my WA account wasnt working.
 
Please note that this link provides a 500 - Internal Server Error.
Apologies, we're having some probs with our Status page. The outage has been resolved however.

The WA Website outage was due to internal routing issue between our application and database servers. An investigation into the route cause is still pending. The website should be up and running as before.
 
Thanks WA for your proactive involvement by letting us know what was going on.
 
Hi guys

We are currently doing some work on the Core Router infrastructure replacing some hardware after the failure we had this afternoon.
It is unfortunately causing a little more downtime than expected. Please bear with us and I will keep you updated in this thread.
 
This is the first time I've experienced an outage like this in years... Just sucks that this comes in my second month with WA.
Oh well... Thanks for the prompt, informative communication.
 
Hi guys. We've had some progress and most services appear to be working. We will be updating here and on our status page further.

We expect maintenance to be completed by 05:30 and also some further minimal downtime.
 
Why we only getting such pathetic speeds on international via WA, 256k to USA and 384k to London ?
